"International travel out of Vancouver International Airport in September fell 94%, to 67,883 passengers, compared with the same month in 2019".
Wow, I had no idea it was that much difference. 67,883 passengers still flew! How many flew in Sept 2019 a million?
"To give domestic travellers some added confidence that they won’t get sick when they fly, the Vancouver Airport Authority (VAA) and WestJet (TSX:WJA) have partnered to launch a pilot project later this month that will see rapid COVID-19 testing for departing domestic travellers on selected flights within a four-hour period each day. The tests will be performed exclusively on passengers who live in Metro Vancouver, so they can return home if they fail the pre-departure test."
If (big if) I were flying this would be at the top of building back my confidence. Hang in there on all of you who have chosen not to travel right now, things are changing rapidly.
